Windsor is coming.

In a speech where she talked about the 100 year anniversary of World War I and paid tribute to aid workers treating those with Ebola in West Africa, The Queen mentioned visiting the set of Game of Thrones whilst talking about reconciliation in Northern Ireland.

The benefits of reconciliation were clear to see when I visited Belfast in June. While my tour of the set of Game Of Thrones may have gained most attention, my visit to the Crumlin Road Gaol will remain vividly in my mind.

What was once a prison during the Troubles is now a place of hope and fresh purpose; a reminder of what is possible when people reach out to one another, rather like the couple in the sculpture.
